As Hannu has suggested, rxvt is your best bet if you don't like the console window. >I feel that I am missing something and would like to get my console window >to have both vertical and horizontal sliders.

On NT/W2K/XP, change the screen buffer size layout property to be bigger than the window size (this is under the system menu properties for the console window). On 9x/Me, you can really only get this by using the mouse to resize your window to smaller than its default size. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.
